5/6 – Sam Parker’s “Flood Threat” Tuesday Night Forecast

Potential for flooding across south Mississippi overnight and Wednesday having several rounds of heavy rainfall. A few showers passed tonight but into Wednesday morning will have more heavier rain. A moderate risk of heavy rainfall capable of producing flash flooding is in place for tonight. The highest risk will be mainly overnight as several rounds of heavy rainfall move through the area. The threat is in place across the entire area, but the highest risk is generally along and north of I-10. I am estimating 4-6 inches of rain with locally higher amounts possibly will result in street flooding and potential for areas of more significant flash flooding. The rain will come in multiple rounds starting late tonight and continuing through Friday across the entire area. Downloading the WXXV Weather Authority App is a great way to receive weather warnings.
